Consider the equation \[ \sqrt{x^{2 } - 2x + 1} = x + 2 \] and the equation which arises from this equation by squaring both sides of the equation, i.e. the equation \[ \left (\sqrt{x^{2 } - 2x + 1}\right )^{2} = (x + 2)^{2}. \] Identify a true statement.
Both equations are equivalent only if \(x\geq - 2\).
Both equations are equivalent.
Both equations are equivalent only if \(x\leq - 2\).
